What is the most overrated AI GEO SEO tactic right now?
Today we're gonna talk about Autonomous SEO, the GEO hype cycling, and what the future of SEO teams looks like when AI becomes part of the workflow. What is the most overrated AI GEO SEO tactic right now?
Why does LLMs.txt NOT improve search visibility according to Google?
I would say it would be LLMs.txt because this has been confirmed that it does not help with search and visibility. There's a separate argument to be made for agentic browsing use cases, but for search and visibility
How do agentic browsing use cases differ from ineffective GEO tactics?
Time for a one-minute break to hear from our sponsor, Previsible. So you're looking for SEO help, then you got a couple of options. You could start replying to spam from agencies that claim they can get you to rank number one on Google. You can pay an hourly rate for a consultant who will inevitably nickel and dime you with hourly charges, or you can work with a cookie cutter agency to quickly launch a strategy-less project with low success rate.
What evidence does Google provide that LLMs.txt has no ranking impact?
None of those sound very good. Now do they? Well, that's where Previsible's integrated consulting model comes in. Previsible draws from a collective 40 years of SEO and digital marketing experience to unlock your organic growth opportunities. They build custom solutions that combine strategy, technical expertise, content, and reporting to effectively operationalize SEO for your business. Previsible's four-stage approach ensures that your SEO programs thrive. By starting off with a strategy first approach. Then they support you in your efforts to create quality content, help you identify technical issues, and most importantly, they'll work with your cross-functional teams to integrate your SEO strategies to make sure that your SEO budget actually drives results, not just your agency's bottom line.
So join brands like Yelp, eBay, Canva, Atlassian, Square, all who rely on the SEO consultant. At Previsible. For more information, go to previsible.io. That's previsible P R-E-V-I-S-I-B-L-E.O.
Google made that pretty clear and I think multiple other organizations have looked at websites with LMs.txt files to see if they have any positive influence on ranking and searchability and discoverability.
